We all are worried about hair fall. Hair fall or thinning hair is a very common concern in almost all age groups today. Both men and women are fighting hair loss every day. But only worrying about this won’t help. It is important to understand your hair and the reasons that are causing the damage.
Amongst several reasons that aggravate the issue, the most common reason is stress. Any kind of stress – physical or emotional, it will definitely result in hair fall. Exercising and taking up hobbies can help ease out the stress. Second most common reason is imbalanced diet. In the daily rush to meet ends, it is our diet that suffers a setback. Hair needs a diet which is rich in protein and iron. Include meat, fish, eggs, green vegetables, pulses and fresh fruits in your daily menu.Eat healthy and stay away from oily junk food.

You should also consider being gentle with your hair especially when they are wet. Brush your hair with care. Stay hydrated, drink as much water as you can every day. Avoid hot water hair wash as it steals the natural moisture from hair. A good relaxed sleep also does wonders for hair.

Cleansing of the scalp is extremely important and the same can be done by using Apple cider vinegar and water in equal quantities. After shampoo, rinse your hair with it. Apple cider vinegar is a natural cleanser. You will be left with silky shiny hair.
